now that i took the time to inform myself (no thanks to -1) i know who commands the armed forces of Canada. Arising, i'd like to become more informed I'm an ignorant American, who commands the Royal Armed forces? curious. i could work via google - as i had to with Canada, but lazy, if you could info...

who controls the Armed Forces in the UK (or Canada for that matter)? I don't know about the UK. In Canada the armed forces are under the direct control of Shlomo Goldstein, the local shakter from Dohány Utca. ignoring your flippant answer and to answer my inquary about YOUR Nation's gov (I guess i ...

In Canada the armed forces are under the direct control of Shlomo Goldstein, the local shakter from Dohány Utca. and the Governor General (who is she/he now?)?

But if some stars/galaxies are blueshift, then how does that then conclude that the Universe, Itself, is expanding? If galaxies are moving closer to us, as you just said andromeda is, then some could say that that, combined with the other blueshift galaxies/stars, is evidence that the Universe, Its...

But "closeness" or not has NO bearing on blue nor red shifted. it does when the bodies in question are close to each other and have enough mass to allow their collective gravitational forces to overcome the expansion of space. as in the Milky Way and Andromeda's mutual Blue shifts WRT to ...

Space does not expand Space is not a static medium but one capable of distortion in many forms due to the effects of general relativity yes, frame dragging? is the term (no sure - mem is poor) - ie. gravity is so extreme near Event Horizons, that space (whatever that is) is "pulled into the BH...

Local gravitational effects will not be immediately affected by the overall expansion of the Universe And this is why some galaxies will be blue shifted - because in cosmic terms they are relatively close yes, but not phrased so well. Gravity effect all galaxies to each other, but only ones of big ...

"how do we transfer a thoughts idea into language" is more apt.

thought is visual/non verbal first, then after learning language is that thought expressed to others in degraded form.

IMO.

assuming your God is good, then his evil creation, and evil itself must offer a higher good, not understandable by men. or your God is just evil. or a little of both. I don't belevie in your God so not able to know his nature for your. You don't have to believe in the God of the Bible to know his n...

In Canada the armed forces are under the direct control of Shlomo Goldstein, the local shakter from Dohány Utca. i'd like an honest reply so as to allow my understanding of Canada's Rule of Law, if you c...

not a huge Phil Dick fan, but i hope the story you refer to that bored you to death was not his short, "Imposter" - that story is all about what it means to be human. Dick is too nihalistic(sp) for my taste, i prefer depair, hopelessness, and irony (w/ the bigger picture of something bett...

I do not value trolls, but yes i reply to one as a troll in reply to me. i do value discussion over trolish invective though. and so will reply with honest civility to you if you'd like to talk about the "matter to things" - and if you and i dissagree about such things - fine my me. I awai...

WHERE is the actual "evidence" that the Universe is expanding? Redshift via Edwin Hubble early 1920's. But if some stars/galaxies are blueshift, then how does that then conclude that the Universe, Itself, is expanding? If galaxies are moving closer to us, as you just said andromeda is, th...

guys. Space does not expand. Matter expands in space. nope. everything expands - space and matter. When it is said "the universe expands" they mean the MATTER in the KNOWN (OBSERVABLE) UNIVERSE. nope, not sure where you got that idea. Keep this in mind, please. Some corollaries follow: 1....
